well done, trav. well done!!! we’ll be lookin’ for ya!
no matter what the size of the rings, ANYONE who can lift them unassisted, is a rock star in my book! good job, travis. thanks for coming to MAC!!
MAC is soooo easy, a caveman could do it!! wait, i AM a caveman!! al, i’m just continuing the legacy you started! MAC is just a great, great games!! i love MAC and all who participate!!
scotty won A’s, chader was second by a nose. thom had to withdraw due to the injury to our brother, john obrian. yours truly was second in the masters 50-59 due to a possible career ending injury to larry ventress (who, incidently, i am trying to get interested into the usawa).
all in all, a superb day!!
sorry, chader. steve said you had to be present to win………… hahahahahaha
steve/becky scott = class act!! period
when i was in high school, the last three years, my sole purpose was to make the state wrestling meet. as a senior, i finally made it to ‘state’. i was thrilled beyond belief. however, when i got there, i soon discovered it was just ‘another’ tournament. a huge disappointment……until a number of years later.
the older i got, the more i understood how much being a wrestler and the training that went into that, shaped the person that i am. i learned so many things and the ‘mind set’ it took to do that. this ‘mind set’ helped me push thru some challenging times as i grew older. it was those experiences that i drew from to tell myself, ‘you did it then, you can certainly do it now’.
it’s the very same reason we all lift now. if you have no goals, no ‘challenges’, you will never know what it takes to really, really push yourself and see what you can do. if you use a ‘crutch’, how in hell will you ever know if it was YOU that did it??
as far as i’m concerned, take all the dope and stick it where the sun does’nt shine. grow a pair of balls, put the weight on the floor and see what you’re made of.
here endeth the lesson………. lol
SUPERB!
when i got out of college, (mid ’70s. i did’nt graduate but that’s a WHOLE different story. lol), got married and worked in the oil patch, i subscribed to the old ‘IRONMAN’. i realized at the time, as i am soooo aware now, what an outstanding publication it was.
i was into power lifting. whenever an issue came, i skipped over the bodybuilding, oly lift and ‘old time’ lifter articles to try and see what was being done in the PL world. i remember, to this day, thinking, “what can those old guys teach me??” what a dumbass i was!!
as they say in the venacular, “too soon old. too late smart.”
KEEP AN OPEN MIND, MY BROTHERS……..
got one….but, i’m a non-contender on this board. i feel soooo inadequate!!
“WE SLEEP SAFE IN OUR BED BECAUSE ROUGH MEN STAND READY IN THE NIGHT TO VISIT VIOLENCE ON THOSE WHO WOULD HARM US.”….G. ORWELL
